[02:39] ---
    VANISHING HUMANS! NEKO-SENNIN'S REVENGE
[03:03] ---
    There was an explosion.
[03:05] ---
    A terror attack?
[03:06] ---
    It's not just a terror attack.
[03:09] ---
    The culprit wants
    humans to hate each other.
[03:14] ---
    Who would do that?
[03:16] ---
    The individual that the Nue mentioned.
[03:19] ---
    It must be Nurarihyon.
[03:23] ---
    What is he like?
[03:25] ---
    He seeks to restore the yokai to glory,
    but the problem is his methods.
[03:30] ---
    He uses yokai and has them attack humans.
[03:34] ---
    He'll also use terrorist bombings to
    stoke the humans' paranoia.
[03:34] ---
    "Foreigners definitely did it!"
[03:36] ---
    "Japanese people wouldn't do this. Lol"
[03:38] ---
    LOWER HOUSE MEMBER TAKAMI FUND-RAISER
[03:39] ---
    He also has many connections
    among the humans.
[03:42] ---
    He takes precautions to ensure
    no one will know he's doing the bombings.
[03:49] ---
    I see.
[03:51] ---
    But the question is,
    why has he become active now?
[03:55] ---
    I don't know.
    But I have a bad feeling about it.
[04:00] ---
    For now, try to find
    information on Nurarihyon.
[04:04] ---
    I'll ask Sand Witch and Kagami-Jijii, too.
[04:07] ---
    Got it.
[04:11] ---
    Whoops! Careful, careful.
[04:15] ---
    So this is the Cat Mound?
[04:19] ---
    I can't read it.
[04:22] ---
    But I'm sure it is.
[04:25] ---
    Oof!
[04:31] ---
    Huh?
[04:34] ---
    SEAL
[04:49] ---
    Nurarihyon-sama,
    I've done as you've ordered.
[04:53] ---
    I see. You've done well.
[04:58] ---
    I suppose I should go
    have a little chat...
[05:04] ---
    with Kitaro-kun.
[05:07] ---
    We couldn't find any clues.
[05:10] ---
    Hmm. He's a slippery one, that's for sure.
[05:15] ---
    Let's wait for Catchick for now.
[05:26] ---
    Nurarihyon?!
[05:28] ---
    Do you like it?
    It's for Daddy Eyeball-san's bath bowl.
[05:35] ---
    It's an Oribe ware black bowl.
[05:38] ---
    Did you release
    the Four Treasonous Generals?
[05:42] ---
    Yes.
[05:43] ---
    Why?!
[05:44] ---
    Do settle down.
[05:48] ---
    That friend you always have with you...
[05:52] ---
    I wonder where she is right now.
[05:59] ---
    Could he have...?!
[06:03] ---
    Let's calm down.
[06:07] ---
    What are you after?
[06:10] ---
    Kitaro-kun, don't disappoint me like that.
[06:15] ---
    Such a foolish question is beneath you.
[06:19] ---
    You're bright enough to know.
[06:22] ---
    It is to destroy the laws of nature.
[06:26] ---
    Surely this much is obvious to you.
[06:29] ---
    The Kyubi no Kitsune tried to
    destroy the underworld!
[06:33] ---
    If it makes the humans panic
    then who cares?
[06:40] ---
    Would you be able to
    plead that in front of Enma?
[06:48] ---
    Yes. Gladly.
[06:51] ---
    I may be frail and miserable,
[06:54] ---
    but I know I can talk my way out of
    anything, even with Enma.
[07:05] ---
    There are many who believe in my cause.
[07:08] ---
    Even if I am bound in the underworld,
    it will only lead them to take my place.
[07:14] ---
    What are you talking about?
[07:17] ---
    Long ago,
    this world belonged to the yokai.
[07:21] ---
    But the humans have
    driven us from our homes,
[07:25] ---
    and even take the darkness
    of the night from us.
[07:30] ---
    I simply wish to reclaim these for my kin.
[07:39] ---
    Kitaro?
[07:41] ---
    What's wrong?
[07:57] ---
    Nurarihyon came here?!
[07:59] ---
    Why would he?
[08:01] ---
    I don't know.
[08:06] ---
    He may have been
    making a declaration of war.
[08:09] ---
    A declaration of war.
[08:17] ---
    So, what's with that letter?
[08:21] ---
    Oh, uh, well...
[08:27] ---
    Humans are disappearing from
    the town of Inuzaki-cho?
[08:32] ---
    That's what the letter said.
[08:35] ---
    That's Inuzaki-cho.
[08:40] ---
    There's no one here.
[08:48] ---
    What's wrong?
[08:49] ---
    All he's saying is, "meow, meow."
    It's not catspeak.
[08:53] ---
    What?
[09:07] ---
    This is the sender's address, right?
[09:10] ---
    I'm sure of it.
[09:12] ---
    It's just an old abandoned clearing.
[09:15] ---
    Was it a trick?
[09:17] ---
    No. Ever since we arrived,
    I've sensed yokai activity.
[09:21] ---
    There's definitely a yokai around here.
[09:23] ---
    There's nothing but cats and no people.
[09:27] ---
    Could it be...?
[09:46] ---
    Neko-Sennin?
[09:47] ---
    Huh?
[09:48] ---
    One of them just said,
    "Neko-Sennin-sama" in catspeak.
[09:52] ---
    Hmm. Neko-Sennin...
[09:55] ---
    Dad, do you know him?
[09:57] ---
    Yes. I heard he was sealed away in
    Cat Mound two centuries ago.
[10:08] ---
    What is that stench?!
[10:10] ---
    Look!
[10:13] ---
    Let me out.
[10:15] ---
    I'm hungry.
[10:16] ---
    Help me.
[10:20] ---
    Help me.
[10:26] ---
    They're rotting while still alive.
[10:29] ---
    So many in such small cages.
[10:32] ---
    Who goes there?
[10:34] ---
    Are you Neko-Sennin?
[10:41] ---
    Indeed I am.
[10:44] ---
    NEKO-SENNIN
[10:45] ---
    Why are you doing this?
[10:47] ---
    Did you turn the townspeople into cats?
[10:59] ---
    I have no obligation to answer.
[11:16] ---
    SHU-NO-BAN
[11:19] ---
    NEKO-SENNIN
[11:21] ---
    "Yo!"
[11:22] ---
    "Yes!!!"
[11:23] ---
    Kitaro!
[11:28] ---
    How dare you!
[11:30] ---
    Oh? So you're a cat yokai.
[11:33] ---
    Turn Kitaro back
    and let these people free!
[11:38] ---
    They don't deserve freedom.
[11:40] ---
    This is punishment.
[11:42] ---
    Punishment?
[11:44] ---
    If you're a cat yokai,
    I'm sure you're aware.
[11:48] ---
    The sort of abuse
    humans have inflicted upon cats.
[11:57] ---
    There was a time when
    humans looked after cats.
[12:01] ---
    But look now.
[12:03] ---
    During my slumber everything changed.
[12:10] ---
    The minute "house cats" became "pets"
    their lives could be bought and sold.
[12:17] ---
    That's no reason to
    treat humans like this!
[12:22] ---
    What do you think these humans did?
[12:27] ---
    After I awoke and "he" told me,
    I couldn't believe it at first!
[12:34] ---
    Surely you've heard the term,
[12:36] ---
    "animal hoarding"?
[12:41] ---
    Humans take them in because they're cute
    and they breed.
[12:46] ---
    Then they're abandoned
    because it costs too much.
[12:52] ---
    I've heard of cases of 50 adults
    and only a few kittens.
[12:58] ---
    Only a few kittens?
[13:00] ---
    You mean... the adults...
[13:02] ---
    Humans aren't all bad.
[13:06] ---
    They're all bad!
[13:09] ---
    Those humans bred kittens
    in confined spaces to sell.
[13:14] ---
    Cats that could no longer breed
    were deemed useless and killed.
[13:22] ---
    Help me!
[13:24] ---
    We did nothing wrong!
[13:26] ---
    Let me out of here!
[13:27] ---
    Let me out!
[13:31] ---
    Those ones put kittens in milk bottles
    letting only their heads out.
[13:37] ---
    Their legs grew warped...
[13:39] ---
    Is that a reason to do the same to them?!
[13:44] ---
    Then why did you turn
    the townspeople to cats?!
[13:47] ---
    The cats that don't know catspeak
    are all human, aren't they?!
[13:50] ---
    So long as humans seek to own pets,
    the suffering of cats will continue!
[13:56] ---
    I understand your wish to protect cats,
    but your argument is one-sided!
[14:06] ---
    We should retreat for now!
[14:23] ---
    Daddy Eyeball-san, who is Neko-Sennin?
[14:27] ---
    He's a hermit who mastered wizardry and
    how to transfer his soul from cat to cat.
[14:34] ---
    We need to act quickly
    or the captive humans won't last.
[14:42] ---
    Will you help, Catchick?
[14:45] ---
    But...
[14:47] ---
    What Neko-Sennin said was true.
[14:51] ---
    Did you know?
[14:52] ---
    The number of cats and dogs put down...
[14:55] ---
    It's over 40,000 a year.
[14:59] ---
    Are such humans really worth protecting?
[15:03] ---
    L-Listen to me, Catchick...
[15:06] ---
    I can't tell.
[15:08] ---
    What am I supposed to do?
[15:21] ---
    That's proper catspeak.
[15:27] ---
    That old woman was your owner?
[15:32] ---
    She took good care of you.
[15:38] ---
    She needed daily medication,
[15:41] ---
    but can't take it as a cat.
[15:48] ---
    She won't last more than a few days.
[15:58] ---
    Humans have taken care of cats.
[16:06] ---
    You know that, right?
[16:25] ---
    So you've come to understand my position.
[16:29] ---
    I understand.
[16:32] ---
    Only that you want to
    sever the bond between cats and humans!
[16:38] ---
    Little brat!
[16:46] ---
    There's a reason I'm called a hermit!
[16:55] ---
    There's no escape!
[17:22] ---
    I'll tear you apart!
[17:26] ---
    Get off of me!
[17:31] ---
    You traitor!
[18:04] ---
    Neko-Sennin, your opinion isn't wrong.
[18:08] ---
    But, your methods are.
[18:19] ---
    Ah! Kitaro!
[18:22] ---
    Thank you, Catchick.
[18:34] ---
    Thank goodness we're back to normal!
[18:36] ---
    I guess cat's struggle to survive too.
[18:39] ---
    Yeah.
[18:40] ---
    Their lives are just as precious.
[18:43] ---
    What difference does it make?!
[18:46] ---
    Legally they're just property!
[18:48] ---
    Animal abuse?
    What's wrong with selling pets?!
[18:51] ---
    I don't need a brat to lecture me!
[18:54] ---
    We are just running a business!
[18:56] ---
    That's right! We sell because
    there's a demand! That's all!
[19:01] ---
    So the yokai's gone?
[19:03] ---
    Then who cares?
[19:11] ---
    Get out of my sight.
[19:15] ---
    I said get out of my sight!
[19:32] ---
    Do we really have to save such people?
[19:36] ---
    What goes around comes around.
    They'll get their comeuppance.
[19:41] ---
    Is that all?
[19:47] ---
    Nurarihyon!
[19:48] ---
    Are you fine with
    letting such evil humans run free?
[19:53] ---
    The young lady is absolutely right.
[19:58] ---
    Everyone!
[20:01] ---
    Kitaro will eliminate yokai,
    but he won't touch humans!
[20:07] ---
    I get it.
    You lured Kitaro here with that letter.
[20:17] ---
    It's just about humans and dogs and cats.
[20:20] ---
    It doesn't affect us.
[20:23] ---
    Are you sure?
[20:27] ---
    If it was humans abusing yokai
    instead of dogs and cats,
[20:32] ---
    I'm sure he'd let them go.
[20:35] ---
    Right, Kitaro-kun?
[20:39] ---
    Say something, Kitaro!
[20:41] ---
    That's right! Say you're on our side!
[20:48] ---
    There you have it.
[20:50] ---
    Kitaro, you let us down.
[20:52] ---
    I thought you were on our side.
[20:55] ---
    Come, everyone. Forget about that traitor.
[20:59] ---
    Nurarihyon-sensei won't betray you!
[21:03] ---
    He wants yokai restored to glory!
[21:06] ---
    That's Nurarihyon for you!
[21:07] ---
    He's not like Kitaro!
[21:53] ---
    There are people who understand.
